Emmet Brickowski | Heroes Wiki | Fandom powered by Wikia The Chosen One / Zero to Hero “ Hello. I'm Emmet. I'm just gonna come right out. I have no idea what's going on. At all. „ ~ Emmet when he is brought up to the royal court Emmet Brickowski is a regular Lego construction worker and the main protagonist of the 2014 Lego crossover film, The Lego Movie. He is called up as "The Special" (in other words, "The Chosen One") by the Master Builders's leader Vitruvius to stop the evil President Business from destroying Lego World. In order to do so, he reluctantly teams up with a tough-as nails spy Wyldstyle whom he develops a crush on, Vitruvius, and even Batman to stop Business. He is voiced by Chris Pratt, who also played Peter Quill/Star Lord and Owen Grady .

Contents [ show ] History At first, he lives an average ordinary day at the town of Bricksburg with the other construction workers, until he spots a hooded girl running away after Emmet falls in love upon first sight, He tries to follow her to apologize, but falls down a long hole and stumbles upon the Piece of Resistance. Emmet is later woken up by Bad Cop and interrogated to know where he got the Piece of Resistance. When Emmet can't comply, Bad Cop orders the robots to take Emmet to the melting chamber. Wyldstyle, the girl he saw the construction site saves him by building a mortorcycle and evading Bad Cop and the robots. Wyldstyle gets upset that Emmet is not that creative and tells him to follow her to go to the cantina bar to meet Virtuvius. Vitruvius is about to train Emmet, but Sheriff Notarobot and a ton of Deputrons try to break into the hiding spot to catch them but Emmet, Wyldstyle, and Vitruvius manage to evade them and Batman joins the group.

They later get to Cloud Cuckoo Land the home of Princess Uni-Kitty and she leads them to the Puppy Court where the Master Builders gather and meet. Emmet tells them that he is the least qualified person to lead them, which causes the Master Builders to get angry at him and disband. Suddenly a golf ball is tossed at them, and a ton of robot ships surround the area. The group meet Benny a blue classic spaceman that is obsessed with building spaceships joins the group. Bad Cop tries to stop them, but they manage to dive underwater with a custom submarine and evade him. Emmet tries to comfort Unikitty on the loss of her destroyed homeland, but only makes it a bit worse. The sub suddenly explodes, but the group manage to save themselves by using the double decker couch idea that Emmet had at his vision.

Metalbeard , then gets them all to his pirate ship and sets sail for the Octan corporation with Emmet giving out a complex plan to stop Lord Business from using the Kragle.Wyldstyle reveals Emmett she wanted to be the special and it turned out to be Him, Emmet reveals that when met at night during the road and told him it was important it was the first time someone said something. Wyldstyle also reveals that his real name is Lucy and Emmet says it's a nice name. About to take both hands are interrupted by Batman. Some seconds later continue with the plan It looked like the plan would work, but unfortunately, the plan fails when Wyldstyle and the others are captured by Bad Cop and the drones. Emmet gets captured too, and just when it looks like they are about to get imprisoned in the Think Tank, Vitruvius is able to fend off the drones but is killed when Lord Business decapitates him with a penny. His last words to Emmet was that he made up the prophecy before succumbing to his wound.

Emmet is tied up to an explosive battery linked to the Think Tanks, while Lord Business cuts the Piece of Resistance off Emmet with an Exacto Knife and tosses it into the abyss of no return. The ghost of Vitruvius (tied to yarn) tells Emmet that he made up the prophecy because he told him he is not the only one that is special. Emmet then sacrifices his life, saving and freeing everybody by jumping into the abyss of no return. Inspired, the Master Builders make Wyldstyle "The Special" and she tells them to be creative and make all sorts of wacky inventions to stop the Micro Managers. Emmet ends up in the real world and gets a boy named Finn's attention and he picks him up. Then "The Man Upstairs" (ironically potrayed by Will Ferrel) sees his son touching his Legos and tries to organize the Legos with a tube of Krazy Glue. Emmet realizes the Piece of Resistance is actually a Krazy Glue cap. After Finn's dad goes upstairs, the boy sends Emmet back into Bricksburg via a plastic tube.

Emmet creates a giant mecha robot out of the construction tools that were in the construction site to fight the Micro Managers. He manages to get to Lord Business's evil lair, and fight the robots but his foot is glued by Lord Business who attempts to glue him with the Kragle. Before that happens, Finn's dad realises that his son based Lord Business off of him and reconciles with his son. Emmet then sends out his secret weapon, his hand offering Business a chance to reconcile his evil actions. Emmet says to him that "anyone" can be special in their own special way, and they can take old ideas and turn them into something new and creative, including Lord Business and tells him that he does'nt have to be the bad guy anymore because like everybody else, he is the most creative, interesting and most talented person in the world, which touches Business, and causes him to reform and give up his villainous ways. Finn's father reconciles with his son, which plays out as Business having a change of heart, capping the Kragle with the Piece of Resistance (which is the cap to the Krazy Glue) and ungluing his victims with mineral spirits.

Emmet is then hailed as a hero, and Wyldstyle becomes Emmet's girlfriend, with Batman's blessing. As a result of the father allowing Finn's younger sister to join them in playing with his Lego sets, aliens made of Duplo blocks beam down and announce their plans to destroy everyone. Personality He is a friendly and optimistic character, and a citizen just trying to do his job. He is also easily frightened and confused. Emmett desperately wants to have friends. When he finds out how little people really think of him, he's crushed. Emmett initially comes across as a bit dense, but it later turns out he's just not used to thinking creatively. As luck would have it, Emmett's mediocre imagination is ultimately what allows the free-thinking of the master builders to co-operate with each other in a crisis.

Regular Emmet wears an orange and blue construction vest and pants lined with silver on the legs, back, and front.

There are two pockets on his vest, one of them containing a blue pen. On his left leg is an ID badge with a small bio (portrayed by three black bars), an image of Emmet, and his name written in white above the bio. His hair is medium brown with ripples molded into it and a little bit of hair sticking out of the back. To fit the Piece of Resistance on Emmet's back, a neck bracket is placed around his neck and the Piece is attached via a stud hole on the back. The first version of this appears with a different head. It has a smirk and it's alternate face is an screaming expression. Another version of this appears with a different head. It has a smile showing teeth and it's alternate face is an nervous expression. There is also one variant exclusive to The LEGO Movie Exclusive Set which is his regular variant (the one with the lopsided smile), but without the Piece of Resistance. The reason for this is so he can sit in his theater seat included in the set. Master Builder The other head has an open-mouth smile on one side, and an angry face on the other. This variant does not include the Piece of Resistance.

Hard Hat This variant is the same as his Regular Variant, but it has a Red Hard Hat with hair underneath. Emmet's face is an open-smile mouth, and the alternate face is him with an excited expression. This can be found in 71004 The LEGO Movie Series . Poncho Emmet's poncho variant includes his regular outfit, a Blue and Orange poncho on his body. His face is yellow with a mustache and an open-mouth grin. He also wears a fedora , the same one as Indiana Jones and The Joker . He has two inaccuracies compared to his movie version: there is no visible hair under his hat and he doesn't have the Piece of Resistance. In early promotional shots for the minifigure, he had a black moustache. Pajamas In his pajamas, Emmet has Light Blue and White Pajamas, and his old headpiece. His face is an open-mouth smile showing him winking, and the alternate expression is Emmet yawning. Robot Disguise In his robot disguise, Emmet has tinfoil covering his hands, feet, face, and the Piece of Resistance.

His legs have the same print as most Emmet variants, except with the tinfoil printing on the feet. The torso is the same as well, except that it is a new combination with light gray hands. The Piece of Resistance is now in a new color of pearl gray. Emmet's head piece has holes cut in the tinfoil for his eyes and mouth and crinkle printing on the back and front of the head piece. He also reuses the same hair/hat combination from Hard Hat Emmet. Video Game Variants Emmet has a total of fifteen video game variants. His Regular, Hard Hat, Cowboy, Robot Disguise, and Pajama variants are included. Also, the outfits from Series 1 that he wore in the movie are included. Emmet's new versions are Trash Can, which has a Trash Can on his head, Wheel Head, which has a wheel on his head, and Shower, which is a variant with bubbles circling him. Also, in the final two levels and in an Instruction Build, his Construct-o-Mech is playable. Emmet's abilities are Instruction Build, using a drill, and fixing objects with a wrench.

Movie Variants All of Emmet's physical and video game variants appear in The LEGO Movie . Background Emmet has been working most of his life on the construction site as an instruction worker in the city of Bricksburg. He longs to be popular, but his co-workers hardly notice he's there. He lives life by the book--literally--and builds things only from the instructions. Because of this, however, he is mostly boring and uncreative, except for at some moment of inspiration, like his inventing the "double decker couch". He is not a fan of adventure or danger either (similar to Bilbo Baggins ), both of which give him reason for "freaking out". One day, however, he stumbles upon the Piece of Resistance while going after Wyldstyle , which makes the Master Builders mistake him as being "The Special", which means he must stop Lord Business from gluing the world together with the Kragle. From that point on, he is caught in a desperate struggle between the powers of order and imagination by Lord Business and the Master Builders, respectively--as well as his self-acceptance in being special in his own ways.

In the final battle, Emmet convinces Lord Business that creativity is not messy or weird, and that it is okay for the people to build brand-new ideas from all the things Business himself had made, which makes him special, too, just like everyone is special. Moved by Emmet's speech and touched by being considered special, Business applies the Piece of Resistance on the Kragle, which soon causes the Kragle to explode, deactivating all of his robot minions and unfreezing his victims (though the real "victims" were saved when the Man Upstairs cleaned the glue off them). After the battle, it is revealed by The LEGO Movie: The Essential Guide that Emmet now spends time with his newfound friends, along with Gail , Wally , Frank , Sherry , Surfer Dave , and all of his Bricksburg friends. This may mean that his Bricksburg friends had finally started to notice he is around. LEGO.com Description This is a quote taken from LEGO.com. Do not modify it. An ordinary, rules-following, perfectly average LEGO minifigure who is mistakenly identified as the most extraordinary person and the key to saving the world.

He is drafted into a fellowship of strangers on an epic quest to stop an evil tyrant, a journey for which Emmet is hopelessly and hilariously underprepared. Minifigures description ( visit this item's product page ) “Good morning, city!” Every day, Emmet goes to work exactly by the steps in the instructions booklet that he always keeps in his hand. As part of Bricksburg’s busy construction crew, he helps to rebuild the city as briefed by President Business. Emmet wants to be popular, but he struggles to stand out in the crowd. Even his fellow construction workers hardly know he’s there. But all of that is about to change, thanks to a mysterious stranger and a legendary Prophecy about the most special minifigure in the entire world! Stats "Hello! I'm Emmet... oh and this is the Piece of Resistance." ―Emmet to the Master Builders. "You don't have to be the bad guy. You are the most talented, most interesting, and most extraordinary person in the universe. And you are capable of amazing things. Because you are the Special. And so am I. And so is everyone. The prophecy is made up, but it's also true. It's about all of us.

Right now, it's about you, and you still can change everything." ―Emmet to Lord Business Notes Emmet's hairpiece is similar to Part 3901 , but has hair sticking out in the back, and has lines on it. In LEGO Movie the Video Game , Emmet has a new instruction build ability, as do all the other construction workers. They can also use wrenches and pneumatic drills. When trying to build in the video game , Emmet and all the other non-Master Builders can't build simple builds without instructions. If he tries, then he puts all the pieces in all the wrong spots. His face is based on the original smiling minifigure head, but altered to show more emotion. This is why he doesn't have pupils. Finn 's Emmet minifigure uses the classic smile, but all of the sets have altered versions. It is revealed by a draft of the film's script that Emmet's age is 22. Emmet's car is the same car from 3177 Small Car , but in different colours and the addition of mirrors. In the online Glue Escape Racing Game, he has a blue convertible.

Ironically, the Piece of Resistance is stuck to Emmet's back because it was covered in the Kragle's glue in real life. His last name is Brickowski, as revealed by the Junior Novel and Lord Business. His surname also happens to be the last name of a retired NBA basketball player, named Frank Brickowski. His hair is the same hair as Sleepyhead 's before he combs it as seen in the trailer and the movie itself. His pajamas are also the same as Sleepyhead's. Emmet's voice actor, Chris Pratt , also plays Star-Lord in Guardians of the Galaxy and Owen Grady in the film Jurassic World. He has the most variants in the video game with 15. The legs on his Hard Hat and Poncho variants have a smaller ID badge with the name "Emmet" spelled bigger. Western Emmet's hat is different on the actual minifigure than in the movie. Every variant of him in the movie is playable on The LEGO Movie Video Game except for the Magician variant.

He makes a cameo appearence in The Simpsons special "Brick Like Me." His shower variant in the video game actually has underwear if you look closely, but bubbles are covering it as if he's taking a shower. Appearances The LEGO Movie | The LEGO Movie Wiki | Fandom powered by Wikia Edit In the Lego universe, the wizard Vitruvius attempts to protect a superweapon called the "Kragle" from the evil Lord Business. He fails to do so, but prophesies that a person called "the Special" will find the Piece of Resistance capable of stopping the Kragle. Eight and a half years later, a construction worker named Emmet Brickowski comes across a woman named Wyldstyle, who searches for something after hours at Emmet's construction site. When he investigates, Emmet falls into a hole and finds the Piece of Resistance. Compelled to touch it, Emmet experiences vivid visions and passes out. He awakens with the Piece of Resistance attached to his back in the custody of Bad Cop, Business' lieutenant. There, Emmet learns of Business' plans to freeze the world with the Kragle, a tube of Krazy Glue with the label partially rubbed out.

Wyldstyle rescues Emmet, believing him to be the Special, and takes him to meet Vitruvius. Emmet learns that she and the wizard are Master Builders—people capable of building anything they need without instruction manuals—who oppose Business' attempts to suppress their creativity. Though disappointed to find Emmet is not a Master Builder, Wyldstyle and Vitruvius are convinced of his potential when he recalls visions of a humanoid deity called "the Man Upstairs". Emmet, Wyldstyle, and Vitruvius evade Bad Cop's forces with the aid of Batman. They attend a council of Master Builders, who are unimpressed with Emmet and refuse to fight Business. Bad Cop's forces attack and capture everyone except for Emmet and a few others. Emmet devises a team plan to infiltrate Business' headquarters and disarm the Kragle. However, he and his allies are captured and imprisoned, and Vitruvius is killed by Lord Business, who sets his headquarters to self-destruct and leaves everyone to die. Vitruvius reveals he made up the prophecy as he dies, but soon reappears to Emmet as a ghost and tells him it is his self-belief that makes him the Special.

Strapped to the self-destruct mechanism's battery, Emmet flings himself off the edge of the universe and saves his friends. Inspired by Emmet's sacrifice, Wyldstyle rallies the Lego people across the universe to use whatever creativity they have to build machines and weapons to fight Business' forces. Emmet finds himself in the real world, where the events of the story are being played out in a basement by a boy, Finn, on his father's Lego set. The father—revealed as "the Man Upstairs"—chastises his son for ruining the set by creating hodgepodges of different playsets, and proceeds to permanently glue his perceived perfect creations together. Realizing the danger his friends are in, Emmet wills himself to move and gains Finn's attention. Finn returns Emmet and the Piece of Resistance to the set, where Emmet now possesses the powers of a Master Builder and confronts Business. Meanwhile, Finn's father looks at his son's creations and realizes that Finn had based the villainous Business on him. Through a speech Emmet gives Business, Finn tells his father that he is special and has the power to change everything.

Finn's father reconciles with his son, which plays out as Business having a change of heart, capping the Kragle with the Piece of Resistance, and ungluing his victims with mineral spirits. As a result of the father allowing Finn's younger sister to join them in playing with his Lego sets, aliens from the planet Duplo beam down and announce their plans to destroy everyone.

Filmmaker Edgar Wright and TIME Magazine film critic Richard Corliss have respectively named The Lego Movie as one of their favorite films of 2014. Awards Lego Movie 2 'will feature more female characters' - BBC News BBC News Lego Movie 2 'will feature more female characters' By Tim Masters Arts and entertainment correspondent, BBC News 12 November 2014 Image copyright Film company Image caption The Lego Movie featured female freedom fighter Wyldestyle (centre) as well as Batman The film industry is waking up to the fact that it needs to better represent female audiences, says one of Hollywood's most successful writing teams. Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, who wrote and directed the Lego Movie, have said they will create more female role models for the sequel. "It's important to us that the movie plays broadly and that we inspire young women as much as we inspire young men," Lord told the BBC. With the Lego Movie and 22 Jump Street, Lord and Miller are responsible for two of the highest-grossing films at the US box office in 2014.

The Lego Movie has made more than $468m (£294m) worldwide, and the pair will also write and produce the follow-up, which is due out in 2018. The Lego toy company made headlines in August when it released a set of three female scientist figures - a palaeontologist, an astronomer, and a chemist - but it has also faced criticism for the predominantly pink Lego Friends range, which is aimed at young girls, Asked what female roles were planned for Lego Movie 2, Miller said: "I don't want to give spoilers but there will be more female characters and more female stuff." Image copyright Getty Images Image caption Christopher Miller (left) and Phil Lord have enjoyed success with the Lego Movie and 22 Jump Street in 2014 He wouldn't reveal whether the lead character would be female. Recent females leads in animated feature films include the princesses Merida in Brave and Anna in Frozen. Both films won Oscars for best animated feature. The first Lego Movie featured a male protagonist Emmet Brickowski (voiced by Chris Pratt), a construction worker whose "love interest" is Wyldestyle (Elizabeth Banks), a freedom fighter with " a strong, independent streak ".

"You can feel that the whole movie culture is now starting to wake up to the fact that half the audience are women," Lord said. "Frozen is reflective of that - and I think we are all going to find a great flourishing of women film makers and subject matter in the future." Miller added: "There's been a real shortage of [female protagonists] in recent years and I think that the near future will be very different." The pair, who also wrote and directed the 2009 hit Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, said that they had no more than a plot outline for Lego Movie 2. "You would think there would be be more pieces in place but all we've written is 'Fade in..,'" said Lord. "I'm certain [that] many broad elements of it will change by the time the movie comes out because that's the way the way that it works," Miller added. "It's like Lego itself - you can take it apart and put it back together in a different shape." LauraEHandler: A Little Inspiration from The Lego Movie's Ordinary Protagonist A Little Inspiration from The Lego Movie's Ordinary Protagonist I have a confession. I'm Emmet Brickowski.

Last week, Darren Rowse concluded a one-day ProBlogger course with that disclosure and reference to The Lego Movie's protagonist. Why does Darren identify with the Lego everyman? Because of this speech to the council of the remaining Master Builders: I may not have a lot of experience fighting or leading or coming up with plans. Or having ideas in general. In fact, I'm not all that smart. I'm not, what you would call, a creative type. Plus, generally unskilled. Also, scared and cowardly. I know what you are thinking: he is the least qualified person to lead us. And you are right. While Darren was talking about blogging, I think it applies just as well to change management and innovation initiatives. Most of us - including "experts" - have no clue what we are doing. We don't have any profound secret strategies. We feel like Emmet Brickowski. We are simply willing to try things, and sometimes those things work.

(Let's not leave the obvious unsaid: many things don't work!) If there is any secret to anything - whether its blogging, bowling, or BIM - the secret is this: The Lego Movie | Know Your Meme The Lego Movie Added Feb 26, 2015 at 12:18PM EST by The Cute Master :3 .

Status Facebook Twitter Urban Dictionary Wikipedia About The Lego Movie is a 2014 computer animated comedy film that follows the heroic adventures of the protagonist Emmet Brickowski and his friends in the fictional LEGO universe. Upon its release in 2014, the film was met by universal acclaims from the critics and commercial success in the box office. History The LEGO Movie was conceived in 2008 by American film producer Dan Lin, who brought the idea to his fellow co-producer Roy Lee.

[1] In November 2011, The film was given a greenlight by Warner Bros. [2] , with Phil Lord and Christopher Miller joining onboard as the writer and the director of the project, respectively. By late 2012, an ensemble cast of voice actors and actresses were announced, with Chris Pratt as “Emmet”, Will Ferrell as “Lord Business”, Liam Neeson as “Good Cop/Bad Cop”, Elizabeth Banks as “Wyldstyle”, and Morgan Freeman as “Vitruvius”. The film premiered on February 1st, 2014 and was released in theaters February 7th, 2014. Animation According to the CG supervisor Aidan Sarsfield, the entire CG animation process was aimed at replicating the aesthetics of fan-made Brickfilms ; the scenery was projected through the LEGO company’s internal Lego Digital Designer and the official LEGO Brick Library, while the characters’ movements were designed to reflect the same mechanical restrains of actual Lego figurines. Plot From iMDB: [4] The wizard Vitruvius attempts to protect the “Kragle”, a superweapon, from the evil Lord Business.

He fails to do so, but warns Lord Business of a prophecy where a person called the “Special” will find the Piece of Resistance capable of stopping the Kragle. Eight and a half years later, Emmet Joe Brickowski, an ordinary construction worker with no special qualities, comes across a woman, Wyldstyle, who is searching for something after hours at Emmet’s construction site. When he investigates, Emmet falls into a hole and finds the Piece of Resistance. Compelled to touch it, Emmet experiences vivid visions and passes out. He awakens elsewhere, with the Piece of Resistance attached to his back, in the custody of Bad Cop, Lord Business’ lieutenant (whose head sometimes turns around to reveal his other side, Good Cop). There, Emmet learns Business’ plans to destroy the world with the Kragle. Wyldstyle rescues Emmet and takes him to Vitruvius, who explains that he and Wyldstyle are “Master Builders” capable of building anything they need, both with great speed and without instruction manuals. Years ago, Lord Business rose to power, his disapproval of such anarchic creativity resulting in him capturing many of them.

As the “Special”, Emmet is destined to defeat him, yet Wyldstyle and Vitruvius are disappointed to find Emmet displays no creativity. Lord Business plans to use the Kragle (a tube of Krazy Glue with some of the logo’s letters rubbed out) to freeze the universe perfectly in place. Bad Cop tracks down Emmet and Wyldstyle, who are rescued by her boyfriend, Batman. He takes them to a meeting of the remaining Master Builders. Unimpressed with Emmet, they refuse to fight Lord Business. Bad Cop and his forces attack and capture all the Master Builders except for Emmet and a few others. Emmet believes the Master Builders’ weakness is that their individual creativity prevents them from working together. He devises a team plan to infiltrate Lord Business’ headquarters. As Emmet and his allies are captured and imprisoned, Vitruvius attempts to fight back but is killed; with his dying words he admits the prophecy was made up. Business throws the Piece of Resistance off the edge of the universe, sets his headquarters to self-destruct, and leaves with the Kragle while leaving Bad Cop behind.

Vitruvius’ ghost tells Emmet that even if the prophecy isn’t real, Emmet can still save the world. Emmet, tied to the self-destruct mechanism’s battery, sacrifices himself for his friends, flinging himself off the edge of the universe. Inspired, the Master Builders escape and rally with the help of Bad Cop. Soon, Lego people across the universe are building their own creative weapons. The Master Builders lead the charge against Business. Emmet finds himself in the real world, where the events of the story are being played out within the imagination of a boy, Finn. His father “The Man Upstairs” chastises his son for ruining his father’s Lego set by mixing characters with the wrong playsets, and originating hodgepodge creations. Finn argues that Lego are for children, but his father prefers to Krazy Glue his perceived perfect creations together permanently, as this is how adults play with Lego. In the Lego world, Lord Business’ forces gain the upper hand. Realizing the father will glue all the Lego in place, Emmet wills himself to move and falls off the table, gaining Finn’s attention.

Finn returns Emmet to the Lego set, where Emmet builds a massive robot to assist his friends before confronting Lord Business. In the real world, Finn’s father looks at his son’s creations again and finds himself impressed. Realizing his son based the evil Lord Business on him, the father has a change of heart and allows his son to play with his Lego however he sees fit. In the Lego world, Emmet convinces Lord Business that Business, too, is special, as is everyone. Moved by Emmet’s speech, Business destroys the Kragle and unfreezes his victims. With the world saved, Emmet celebrates with his friends, and Wyldstyle, whose real name is Lucy, becomes his girlfriend. However, alien Duplo beings beam down, announcing their intentions to invade, due to the father allowing Finn’s little sister to play with his Lego set as well. Then at the end they get captured by the Duplo toys.
